Why I want my camera with me at all times

I’ve mentioned missed opportunities, so I won’t elaborate other than to say…I missed another one because I didn’t have my camera with me. Hubby and I went to Academy and after we got out of the car he did a double-take at the truck next to us.
“What?”
“I guess this guy’s been hunting.”

So I sneak a peak and sure enough… In the bed of this pickup-truck is the head of a deer. Or more accurately, the head of a buck. Unless does have antlers. I’m not expert, and the “telling” parts were not in evidence. The head jutted out of an empty (well, mostly empty) bag of potting soil.

And, as I mentioned, I had no camera with me. I thought about buying a disposable camera, but the guy was gone when we got back out to our car, so that’s a moot point.

In the absence of an actual photo, I thought I’d share the following tale:

“A lady told of a man driving down the interstate with a dog hanging on to the tailgate for dear life. She said if he hadn’t been going so fast in the other direction she would have tried to stop him. A few weeks later her son saw this truck at the Bass Pro Shop! It’s a taxidermist! THIS IS REALLY IN DAPHNE ALABAMA !”

I can’t speak to the voracity of the story but a picture’s worth 1,000 words, wouldn’t you say?
